Well I have been getting to know the 'Three Amigos' today.

No not sitting in the car with them slurping Tequila and sucking on lemons but trying to get to the bottom of why they are all lit up.

Checked the sensors and couldn't get any sense out of the OSF. On closer inspection all was revealed:

Yep the reluctor ring had split and wasn't rotating with the rest of the driveshaft.
Yep, that will do it Mike!!

And the really good news is £1.99 delivered for a replacement!


If only my 75 was as cheap to repair.

Had a look through the night before Steve thanks - didn't come across a broken reluctor though, but I bet it is in there somewhere.

Checked the brake master cylinder level switch and that was reading fine despite the cracked casing - with it unplugged the red brake alarm came up.

Gave the classic mini a check over for a show tomorrow. There’s five of us going in minis ‘of significant interest’ to represent 60 years of the mini. It’s over in the North East and hopefully by the time I get home the mini will of covered more miles in one day than the previous three years put together. Hoping for some sun but it usually snows when I head towards Newcastle.
